This book is a single source of information on the diagnosis and management of patients with primary central nervous system neoplasms. The audience includes neurologists, neurosurgeons, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, and pediatric oncologists. Diagnostic methods have changed significantly in the last several years, and effective treatments have been developed for many of these patients. Much of this information is in the literature, but there is not a central source that emphasizes clinical aspects of these diseases. This book is organized by tumor type (after preliminary chapters on history, diagnosis, and general aspects of treatment), and the last chapter discusses several miscellaneous topics, including a review of the diseases that appear radiographically to be tumors but are not. The format is traditional with the figures emphasizing typical neuroimaging of these tumors, and the references are limited to key articles rather than comprehensive reviews. Several authors from different disciplines pertaining to brain tumors have contributed.

Numerous new concepts and procedures are reviewed and discussed in this book and allude to the transport of drugs to the brain. New radiation concepts are also presented, plus management of toxicities associated with both treatment modalities. It is the goal of this book to provide information and data that will be useful for both researchers and practitioners to develop new approaches for the management of CNS malignancies.

This volume mainly contains information on the diagnosis, therapy, and prognosis of brain tumors. Insights on the understanding of molecular pathways involved in tumor biology are explained, which should lead to the development of effective drugs. Information on pathways (e.g., hedgehog) facilitates targeted therapies in cancer. Tumor models are also presented, which utilize expression data, pathway sensitivity, and genetic abnormalities, representing targets in cancer. For example, rat model of malignant brain tumors using implantation of doxorubicin with drug eluting beads for delivery is explained. The future of pathway-driven therapies for tumors is summarized. The importance of personalizing cancer care is emphasized. The need for supportive measures for survivors of brain cancer is pointed out, so is the quality of life monitoring. The need of rehabilitation therapy for patients with primary and metastatic brain tumors is also emphasized. Role of MicroRNA in distinguishing primary tumors from metastatic primary tumors is discussed. Advantages and limitations of chemotherapy (e.g., temozolomide and doxorubicin) are discussed. The complexity of tumor to tumor transfer is explained; examples discussed are: brain metastases from breast cancer and brain metastases fro non-small cell lung carcinoma. Identification and characterization of biomarkers, including those for metastatic brain tumors, are presented. Genomic analysis for identifying clinically relevant subtypes of glioblastoma is included. A large number of imaging modalities are detailed to study progression and invasion of gliomas

Neuro-Oncology is a three-part coverage of that subject over three volumes, comprehensive and multidisciplinary in its approach. This second part is devoted to the theme "Gliomas and Other Primary Tumors of the Brain and Spinal Cord". The first part of the volume focuses on the gliomas, representing the majority of malignant tumors of the brain. Proper classification of brain tumors is essential, and the adaptation of the last version of the World Health Organization's Recommendations on Classification and Grading of Primary Brain Tumors in 1993 are included in this volume and extensively discussed. On low-grade gliomas, the issue of wait-and-see or straightforward treatment, depending on symptomatology or localization in the infratentorial or supratentorial compartment, including optic pathway tumors, is reviewed in depth. For every tumor, epidemiology, neuropathology and clinical characteristics are an intrinsic part of each chapter in this volume. Although relatively rare, spinal cord tumors constitute a separate subject. Ample attention is given in this present work to primary tumors of the spinal cord and of the spinal column, with single sections devoted to solitary schwannomas, vascular tumors and malformations. The aim throughout is to present the reader with a comprehensive approach for each specific tumor, with attention being given to epidemiology, neuropathology, clinical and neuroimaging diagnosis and emphasizing treatment options.

Tumors of the Brain and Spine focuses primarily on approaches to the treatment of benign, primary low-grade to high-grade, and metastatic tumors in the brain and spine, as practiced by surgeons and clinicians at the University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center. The book is written mainly for the primary care oncologist, general neurologist, and general neurosurgeon. Discussion of treatment coverage focuses on neurosurgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy, singly and in combination. Also included are chapters on symptom management, molecular genetics and neuropathology of intracranial tumors, leptomeningeal dissemination of systemic cancer, epidemiology of brain tumors, and innovative treatment strategies.
